WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU TANGERINES

[TV reporter] Chaos ensues
after the implementation

of the new waste disposal policy.

People are getting rid of things
they should not throw away

out of fear that they may end up
having to pay fines.

FROM YEONG-BEOM
TO GEUM-MYEONG

[Geum-myeong]
I couldn't just throw it away.

I had to pay for the garbage bags I used.

I made sure to be respectful.

[TV reporter] Residents put warning signs
in front of their homes…

[girl gasps] Oh, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot.
Hey, hurry, hurry, hurry.

[moans] Hot, hot, hot.

WEDDING INVITATION

[moans]

[Geum-myeong] I tore off the limbs
and cut up one of the big stuffies

so the pieces would go
in the bags they need to.

It all felt really wrong.

You're out of kimchi too?

Everyone knows I ended the engagement?

Oh, what in the world do you eat?

At least you're still alive.

Life goes on for the living.

[sighs] Get off your rear end.
Your mom called me again.

She wants to make sure you're okay.

You heard of pain spots, huh?
Areas of the body that feel pain.

There's pain spots in our organs.

In all of our internal organs.

Heartache isn't simply a thing you say.

There's pain you actually feel

where your heart is.

Your heart

feels… this tight pain.

It's true.

Call your family, you ungrateful child.

[Geum-myeong] I couldn't see
my best friend of seven years any longer,

but my best friend of 20 years

was still by my side.

Geum-myeong, are you okay?

You have food to eat?
You have nothing in your fridge, huh?

Do you want me there?

I made a lot of jangjorim.

Even married couples can part ways.
High-class people do what they want.

So, uh, he isn't calling you, right?

Okay, okay. I won't mention that guy.

Sure, good night.

[phone beeps]

She always says, "Forget it." Forget what?

[sighs]

She say that again?

Well, she only ever says "Forget it,"
or "Mom, you don't have to know."

I wish she'd talk to me

or that she'd use me to vent.

She's a grown-up now.

What's a mother for otherwise?

No one worries more about her than I do.

Do you feel bad
she's not asking you for help anymore?

She'd always ask me first.

Now she tells her problems
to everyone else

and turns me away.

Traitor.

There's no betrayal worse than that.

[child Geum-myeong]
You're the only one I'm telling, Mom.

[feel-good music playing]

This is a secret,

but I like Kim Jeong-geun.

I might even marry him.

Why?

Why do you like Jeong-geun?

He's cute.
The cutest boy in our neighborhood.

Goodness.

Geum-myeong, you're a big girl now. Huh?

You have a crush on a boy.

[chuckles]

[sighs happily]

You know what though?

I do wish
you'd mature a little more slowly.

Just be a child longer.

Why?

Because you're adorable right now.

You're so adorable now.

[both chuckle]

[Ae-sun] Geum-myeong.

You tell me all your secrets
when you get bigger, okay? Hmm?

You're my secret keeper, Mom.
Of course I will.

-Of course.
-Oh yeah?

I'm closest to you, Mommy.

Even more than Kim Jeong-geun?

Goodness. [laughs]

Mom, who's your best friend?

Who me? Oh, I think that'd be you.

[chuckles]

Do you… [softly] …have a crush on anyone?

[softly] Oh, my crush is Yang Gwan-sik.

[normal] Over me?

[Ae-sun] Well, no, you're my favorite
in the whole wide world.

Good, because you're my favorite, Mom.

Really?

Yeah, that's why
I bought Popeye for a snack.

Because you said once
Popeye was your favorite snack.

Apollo is my favorite.

Oh, dear.

You got Popeye 'cause of that?

I decided not to buy the Apollos this time

because I love you so much, Mommy.

[Ae-sun moans] Oh gosh.

POPEYE

Thank you.

I'm very glad to hear that.

[Geum-myeong] We used to be
each other's world.

One left that world behind
while the other stuck around.

And what do you want for dinner?
Anything you like.

I want jangjorim.

[Ae-sun] I'll make you jangjorim for…

[Geum-myeong] My mom remained
the sweetest mother in the world,

and she was always my secret keeper.

[music fades]

What are we going to do
with all this food?

-It's no fun just us two.
-Mm.

She has an office job.
It's hard for her to get here on weekends.

It'd be tiring for her.

[Geum-myeong] After the thousandth time
she called to ask if I had eaten,

I started feeling really hungry.

[door opens]

Mom, I'm hungry.

[Geum-myeong] I missed my mom's food.

Hi, baby. You didn't say you were coming.

I used vacation days.

[both laugh]

Ah, but why didn't you call me?
It's pretty late.

I'm hungry, Mom.

Yeah! We've got food. We do.

I'll make steamed rice.
Just wait. [chuckles]

[sighs]

Honey.

I just made a whole pot of jangjorim.

Your dad's been peeling quail eggs
to give to you since yesterday.

Oh! Chonggak kimchi too.
I have well-fermented chonggak kimchi.

You like it sour, right?

Eun-myeong likes it fresh,
and you want it sour.

I always have to keep them separate.
You guys always give me more to do.

Goodness.

[sentimental music playing]

The floor's cold. Wait. Here.

[Geum-myeong]
The truth is, it was obvious.

It was obvious

how forlorn it was inside that apartment,

just five minutes ago,
how lonely they must've felt.

All right. All right.

If you'd called me,
I would've come to the airport.

Why, so you can wait there
an hour earlier?

[laughing]

[laughing]

Eat and go back to sleep, okay?

Oh my God. I'm not a pig in a cage.

[Geum-myeong] As a child,
when I fell, she gave me candy.

Here.

Oh, Mom,
you know broccoli's just the worst.

It'll help you digest.

I think

we should have noodles
for a simple lunch. Here.

[gasps]

This is a simple lunch?

Then what would
a complicated one look like?

[Geum-myeong]
After I recovered from the mumps,

she made me pork cutlet.

[middle-aged Ae-sun]
You love spicy noodles.

Geum-myeong.

Steamed bun, your favorite.

You love red beans.

[Geum-myeong] They were eager
to do one more thing

for their heartbroken daughter.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Yeah.

Yeah, well, she arrived out of the blue.

[laughs] She missed her mother,
that's why.

Yes, son.

[door opens]

[middle-aged Gwan-sik sighs]

[grunts, groans]

Amberjack.

Look what I got. Real amberjack.

Is there fake amberjack?

[Geum-myeong]
They took care of me yet again.

Dad, I'm going to gain weight.

Whoa, amberjack. Great!

[Geum-myeong] They made sure
that I didn't lose a single pound.

Really?

Yeah, sure.

-[middle-aged Gwan-sik] Oh, it's so cold.
-Hey. Your brother wants to say hi.

[chuckles] What?

You miss me
now that you're a soldier, huh?

[mockingly] "Oh, Geum-myeong."

[Eun-myeong] You got dumped, huh?
He dumped you, right?

[mockingly] "Oh, Yeong-beom."

[Geum-myeong] In that refuge, where I was
comfortable but also uncomfortable,

I hibernated like a bear in the winter
to regain my strength.

Geum-myeong.

Geum-myeong.

Geum-myeong.

Huh? What?

Wanna sleep longer?

[Geum-myeong moans]

Uh, are you tired?

[moans] Yeah.

Come on, get up.

I wanna sleep longer.

Come, let's go somewhere together.

[Geum-myeong] Can we just go later?

[groans] Ah, Dad! I'm tired!

Okay, go back to sleep.

[Geum-myeong moans]

[door closes]

[sighs]

[Geum-myeong] I'll never know why
I realized it at that moment.

[sighs]

When I went on trips with Yeong-beom,

I'd happily wake up at 4:00 a.m.

[moans] You knew I'd come out, right?

[chuckles]

[chuckles]

[sighs]

[wind whistling]

[sighs]

Why do I have a life jacket on?

GEUMEUNDONG

Are you not fishing today?

-Well, I'm off so…
-You're off?

Apparently, there are no clouds.

There it is. There.

[Geum-myeong] You woke me up
to look at the sunrise?

You know that condo
next to the restaurant?

To see it from here,
you have to pay 30,000 won a night.

You're getting to see it for free
just because of your dad.

Oh, I can give you 30,000 won.

Pay me, then.

[both chuckle]

It feels wonderful to look at the sunrise.

Oh, every time I see
the sun come up, I pray

so that all things will go well
for you and your brother, Geum-myeong.

You see the sunrise every morning?

Are you out here so early every day?

You don't ever want to sleep in?

Oh, sure. I can't think of anybody
that doesn't wanna sleep in.

So then why do you sail out
every morning this early?

How can you live like this every day?

Maybe if I sleep a little less,

the two of you will get to sleep
a little more.

[sighs] That's why
I wake up so early, you see.

[Geum-myeong] If I think about it,

there was never a day
when Dad woke up later than I did.

Don't you have lotion?

Wow, Mom only packed things you love.

That's for you, Dad. It's rolled omelet.

Your Mom was so excited
to prepare food for you.

Does it ever get scary?

Well, of course.

There's nothing in the world
scarier than the ocean.

So you just keep coming out here?
Even though you're scared?

When the winds are strong, and I'm afraid,

I always look at one thing.

The lighthouse?

Oh, no.

Look. You see that small light over there?

That's a fishing boat.

The only beacon I need.

See, if I believe people on that boat
are as lonely and scared as I am,

it's less scary.

It's less scary
knowing someone's with you here.

[middle-aged Gwan-sik sighs]

Me and your mom
are never going to leave you,

just like that boat.

If ever you're hungry,
don't hesitate to come home.

Dad, um,

I need you to be honest.

You're embarrassed in front of
all the neighbors because you

already mailed the invitations.

I'm not embarrassed.

I would've been
if you'd married into that family.

I knew things wouldn't work out
between you. I knew it.

It'll work out, dear. I know it will.

But you always say that.

Just because you say it
doesn't mean it'll actually happen.

What else can I do

except to just wish you the best?

If you were born into
a prosperous, successful house,

they would've done everything for you,

all kinds of things, and they'd make sure

that you'd never get hurt.

Then, in the next life, don't be my dad.

Don't be my dad ever again.

Save yourself the trouble.

-I'm glad to do it.
-[emotional music playing]

I loved it.

I never thought of it as trouble
because of you. No trouble at all.

Dad, if you have 100 of something,
you always give me 120.

Why do you keep doing that?

Life wouldn't be easier with a rich dad.

I wouldn't trade you
for Hyundai's founder.

I think my knees are better now.

Oh, please go to the hospital
if you're in pain.

You think cooling patches
are going to solve the problem?

This is so annoying.

You're so annoying.

[sobs]

I don't mind
if you're not marrying anyone.

And if I'm being honest with you,
I… I think it's even better. I like it.

I'll get hitched.

You've always loved being married.

Why tell me not to get married? Why?

[Geum-myeong sniffles]

[Geum-myeong] That day,
I saw the sun differently.

It brought a new light

over the lonely ocean.

But it was only when
my own sun began setting

that I realized how warm it was
to sit by my dad's side.

[music fades]

[Sang-gil] Hey, there.

Why were you on the boat?

I watched the sun come up with Dad.

Where's your mother? Is she not working?

It was just me and my dad.

-You two?
-Yes.

-Just you two?
-Yes.

Aren't you still in college or something?

-Dad, do you need help?
-Nah.

You look exactly like your mother did.

Do you study hard?

-I'm working, actually.
-Yeah? Where?

-Major corporation.
-Which major corporation? Jeez.

Ah, give it. It's Sunday.
You going out there?

Why does it matter what day it is
to a fine sailor?

Hey, put your shoes on properly.

What? Your wife kicked you out again?

Again? The hell do you know?

What do you know about my family?

Each family has a different dynamic, see?

Why is he so rude to you, Dad?
He can't talk to you that way.

Hey, your dad may be a captain now,
but you know what?

He used to pull in the net,
cook noodles for me, and--

Okay, that's really great.
However, you're both captains now.

Yeah, you know we are.

[Geum-myeong] Eun-myeong broke up
with that man's daughter, right?

That family. I'm telling you, man.
That family.

Good God.

Gwan-sik won't be working for you

ever again.

[jaunty music playing]

Okay, don't do it then. Just go away, man.
Just go home. Just leave now.

Why would this spoiled brat hold his hand?
She's grown up.

SANDGLASS

[sentimental music on TV playing]

[Sang-gil clears throat]

So, uh,

what are you up to these days?

Are you doing okay at work?

Selling makeup there, right?
Or did you sell your brain to the TV?

So,

uh, if you, uh, have time off some day,

you wanna

take a morning boat ride?

Huh?

You know, when

the sun rises, and--

Hire somebody.

What?

I'm busy too.

You send that boy letters now? Huh?

If you ever visit him, you're dead meat.

-He won't see me even if I go.
-Say what?

You went there, you sneaky little--
I'm sending that boy to a military prison.

I have a friend who's a general.

[box clatters]

[Hyeon-suk sighs]

Wow.

You are so shameless.

Excuse me?

You go around meeting women of all kinds.

I think it's hilarious
that you tell me I can't see one guy.

How dare you!

You brat. What the hell do you know?

All your kids saw the way you lived.
No one's taking you seriously.

Just keep saying, "How dare you."

Why you… I'm gonna shave
all your hair, you little--

Fine, just shave my head.

You've already ruined my life anyhow.

Keep me here forever, then. I dare you.

Don't be slamming that door on me, girl!

[Hyeon-suk] It was the wind!

[frustrated sigh]

-Honey.
-What?

I'm too loud again?

Did you buy this place?

And tell me, what the hell
have you been studying?

Uh, for dinner…

Whatever you like.

Actually, can you… go out for dinner?

Why do you have to eat at home?

It's a real bother.

[jaunty music playing]

It's a real bother?

It's a real bother?

Why is it a bother?

Put up your hands
if you think I'm a bother.

[sighs]

[grunts]

T.O. I LOVE EUN-MYEONG

WE'RE FAR YET CLOSE
I WILL ALWAYS WAIT FOR YOU

I DO WAT I WANT
DON'T TELL ME WAT TO DO

[Sang-gil] You all get to eat
because of me.

Got it?

Because of me!

[middle-aged Ae-sun]
They have a kumquat field.

It's two and a half acres, I think.
Or was it four acres?

That's a pretty huge difference,
two and a half to four acres.

Know what they say about
that family's dad? Have you heard?

He's Seogwipo's Yang Gwan-sik, they say.

He's a good husband. [chuckles]

And they have more than a kumquat field.

They own a mountain, and it's a huge one.

And what, you've got a crush on that guy?

Why are we talking about
the kumquat family?

They have a kumquat field.
They own a mountain.

They also have a son
who's a public official.

He went to college in Seoul. He's 29.

It's important to observe a man's father.

He would've learned
how to treat his family from him.

That why Eun-myeong's
such an expert at dating?

The kumquat man's son
resembles Choi Jae-sung.

You need a handsome man.

You end up fighting less
if you marry a handsome one.

Mom, it's been a year
since I broke off the engagement.

So what? You did nothing wrong.

Everyone in town knows we broke up, right?

If I find someone new already,
how will that make me look?

Who cares if they know?

Not everybody in town knows about it.

[scoffs]

Why didn't you send these?

Well, I…

I knew you wouldn't follow through.

What?

That's how I raised you, dear.

[wistful music playing]

[Ae-sun] If she can't even
ride a tricycle,

she'll just live in the kitchen
her whole life.

I want Geum-myeong to really have it all,

and I want her to really prosper
and to blossom.

Geum-myeong should be thriving.

I don't want her to set the table forever.

I want her to flip the table over instead.

Geum-myeong, go faster. Faster!

Quick, quick, quick!

[Ae-sun laughs]

Yes, go!

Faster!

[Geum-myeong] Well,
why didn't you flip the table over?

Did you not ever feel like it?

[Ae-sun] Seven.

Eight.

[Geum-myeong] Why did you have to be
the nice one all the time?

It's not like there was a prize for it.

ONE BASKET OF TANGERINES
80 WON FOR TEN

That's 11.

Huh?

That's 11.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Because of you.

Oh.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Because of you.

You were looking at me
with those sweet, twinkling eyes.

How could I not be aware of my actions?

One thing I realized
after I gave birth to you and your brother

is that the life I'm going to live then

is one that you children would remember.

You guys will talk about

how I lived my life at the funeral.

Once I realized that,

I knew I had to be conscious
of my actions all the time.

[Geum-myeong] I realized
why the invitation said,

"The Elder Daughter of
Yang Gwan-sik and Oh Ae-sun."

I was their Geum-myeong.

Geum-myeong.

You did absolutely nothing wrong.

It's fortunate you avoided a pile of crap.

Yeong-beom isn't crap, you know.

I know. I know he isn't.

You never have to tell me that. I know.

I know you still cry inside.

When you were a child,
you cried for four days

when Kim Jeong-geun wouldn't sit with you.

How do you remember his name?

How can I forget it?

My best friend
entrusted me with her secret.

It's like boxing up your precious memories
and burying them underneath.

Right?

Sometimes, it's enjoyable to take it out
once in a while to look at.

They always say first love
is for the memories, dear.

[moans] Oh, Mom, what do you know?

Your first love lives here with you.

You need to enjoy life like you did
when you used to ride your tricycle.

Not enjoying youth
is a massive waste, you know?

My goodness.

Your hands are still so soft.

Just like fresh flower petals, dear.

So new.

Speak for yourself.

Do something with your talent.

Write your poems.

I write every day.

Over there is my poem collection.

1995 HOUSEHOLD ACCOUNT BOOK
OH AE-SUN

[sentimental music playing]

[Geum-myeong] It was as though
I was a new outfit

that had just been made
by a skillful tailor.

When I left, I was in pieces,

but when I returned,
I was stitched back together.

[tapping]

[sentimental music continues]

She was only here a few days,

but the house feels emptier than before.

Well, it's just been
the two of us for a while now.

[sighs]

[sobs] Oh my goodness.

She didn't have to do this. She didn't…

She's so sweet.

She's so sweet.

FOR THE FOOD
WRITE YOUR POEM

[Geum-myeong] In our family,
receiving so much

and repaying so little was acceptable,

and unfairly so.

[woman 5] Oh, my bones.

My bones ache more and more every day.

[grunts, groans]

[Gyeong-ja] Being a mother
is a losing game, isn't it?

Chung-su did haenyeo work
until after she was 80.

They didn't find
one decent outfit for her coffin.

All her children did was
to snatch money out of her hands.

They were never bothered
that they took away her life's work.

They blew all her money,
but they cried as if

they were ever good to her.

But still, she also said
that we witnessed a president

who put on a prison uniform.

At least she kept on working without
anyone's help until the end of her life.

Oh God.

A dog wouldn't even envy
a haenyeo's troubles.

But it's not about adversity.
It's all about character.

Ae-sun also needs
to draw the line somewhere.

Everyone and their moms get cared for.
Of course she's always out of money.

Should I try to stop her?

Leave them alone.

Once we leave this life,

Ae-sun won't have any friends
or her aunts for that matter.

We can't always defend her.
She must fend for herself for once.

-Uh…
-[sniffles]

[sighs]

Well, at least I'm not gonna take it.
I hit back.

[sighs]

Can't you be just a little nicer to folks?

I guess I'm saying I don't get
why you have such good fortunes.

My brother is a total fool for you.

Your daughter is successful.

These annoying haenyeo kind of
gave you this store for free.

-Am I invisible?
-Know what else?

I, your wonderful sister-in-law,
constantly take good care of your in-laws,

-Don't I?
-I was wondering when you'd use that one.

In principle, my brother's the eldest.
Why should I be caretaker?

But you're not caretaker, are you?

You had your parents sell their house
because of your business there.

Now you're making your aging mom
take care of your kids.

Who's the caretaker? Please, girl.

That's my mom's most hated auntie.

Listen, when you were a child,
Ae-sun fed you three square meals a day.

You wouldn't be able to repay her
for what she did for you.

-You think Ae-sun's money is your money?
-Why are you butting in?

Hey!

What is that?

What did you bring this time?

ELVAN WELLNESS MAT

[Gyeong-ok] Ae-sun,
if Gwan-sik sleeps on that mat,

his knee will be all better,
and he won't ever get cancer.

You know I gave you a big discount, right?

Couldn't take advantage like that.

I think of you first
if I find anything special.

If Gwan-sik places his finger on the mat
while it's warm, the infrared from it…

Oh… What?
I can't give you a refund for that one.

You said your mother's back
has been hurting a lot.

Don't lie and say that
you bought it for her.

Say that I'm the one who got it. Hmm?

If I'm spending money,
I should get bragging rights.

[scoffs] You want
to embarrass me with this.

Go.

Go.

Hey. Please don't bring anything
to sell next time, okay?

Ae-sun.

Character molds destiny, right?

What, you envy my good fortunes now, huh?

Well…

Look. You took all my cash again today.

[chuckles]

[mimicking race car engine]

Come eat another one.

One more bite. One more.

[groans]

Oh, why do I deserve pain like this?

Who knew that I'd still be babysitting
my grandkids at this age?

When you're done,
can you unplug these? Prevents fires.

Gyeong-ok blames me
for not dressing her kids

with enough clothes
whenever they get sick.

This is worse than taking care of
your dad's parents.

-Ya!
-Seo Dong-min, stand guard.

Attention! Atten-hut! Atten-hut! [groans]

Oh God.

Why come here if you're just gonna
sit around without making a sound?

Go. Go home. Go to your wife.

No one's been on my side my whole life.

Your back. How is it?

Please worry about your wife's back.

Well, inflammation patches
won't be enough.

-You need to get acupuncture.
-[scoffs]

I'll take you for treatment.

I must say I was probably
on Ae-sun's side a lot.

No one on this planet
would be so loyal to one's wife

against his mom as often as you.

Listen.

I wouldn't trade you
for Hyundai's founder.

I wouldn't trade you if Shin Saimdang
was available for a mother.

Hey. Pick your foot up.

Why would Shin Saimdang
wanna be your mother?

She's got a preference too, I'm sure.

I won't count on you
or your wife to treat me better.

There is no mother that can take pride in
having a fool for a son.

Even Shin Saimdang would turn her back.

Here, here.

[sighs] If your disrespectful son is here,

you should make him clean.

Who implied that son? Who?

-Who said that?
-You said dogs are better, remember?

Everyone in town knows that.

Tell them to quit talking crap.

You've done good things.

[tuts]

I don't know anything about
losing a child,

but I know what it's like to lose parents.

Watching you move on was honorable enough.

Everybody knows about that.

[Gye-ok groans]

[sentimental music playing]

Mom. Hey.

It's Jong-gu. Jong-gu.
Your eldest grandson Jong-gu is here.

Grandma, it's Jong-gu. Remember me?

You don't recognize him, Mom?

Jong-gu, the pathetic, dull dimwit.

Mom, you taught Jong-gu how to write.

He didn't know how to multiply,
but now he's a card shark, you know?

Chun-ok, you know who I am? Huh?

Who am I?

Chun-ok. Hey.

[Ae-sun's uncle] Oh my.

Mom, you used to be so well-versed
in writing when you were younger.

Now your mind is fading.

Why is it that your mind
has left you already?

[Jong-gu] Oh, hello.

Hi, Ae-sun.

Come on. Come on in.

When did you come down?

I thought maybe I might never celebrate
my sister's birthday again.

I'm afraid this might be her last.

Grandma.

It's me. Ae-sun.

She doesn't know.
She's forgotten everyone.

Ae-sun, I'm really, really upset.

She doesn't remember me.

[Ae-sun's uncle] Goodness.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Grandma.

Oh.

Grandma, I brought
senbei crackers for you. Senbei. Huh?

-After you finish up your meal, you can--
-I remember.

Han-gyu's daughter.

My Han-gyu's daughter.

So,

have you been well?

[gentle piano music playing]

Grandma, I guess I've been

Han-gyu's daughter to you all along.

You always forget my name,
but not that I'm Han-gyu's daughter.

Does that make you upset?

I love it.

I really appreciate it.

What?

What is the matter?

What is it?

What's bothering you?

What is it?

Child, what is the matter?

Child, what is the matter?

Nothing's the matter.

It's nothing at all.

If something were wrong,
you'd buy her a new boat.

When Han-gyu's daughter said
she was having a hard time,

you bought her a whole new boat.

Mother, I'm struggling too.

Your 60-year-old daughter-in-law
is also suffering.

So will you get me a boat as well?

[Ae-sun's uncle] Stop it.

Grandma, listen,

would you like to… to live with us?

Oh, no.

But you should come live with us.

No.

You know Gwan-sik is a good man.

He'll do anything I ask of him.

I said no.

Why not?

Not your home, darling.

[scoffs]

Am I a stranger to you?

Is that really what you think, huh?

[chuckles]

Grandma, how about I get you new dentures?

How's that sound?

I'm just going to pull money
out of my savings

and then get you some nice dentures.

You'll get dentures?

Mm-hmm.

You helped me back then

when I needed some new teeth
when I was a child, remember?

[girl] ♪ Leopard cub with no teeth ♪

♪ Don't go near the water now ♪

♪ You will scare the baby fish ♪

♪ Don't go near the magpie ♪

♪ Caw, caw, they will hide ♪

Let's see. Let's see.
I'm not pulling the tooth.

-I just wanna see if I did it right.
-[young Ae-sun sobs]

Don't lie to me.
You're gonna pull it out, aren't you?

[laughs]

You're so smart,
just like your dad. Silly girl.

Let's pull that tooth.
That crow is waiting for your tooth.

Wait a bit. Wait a bit.
Just let me count to ten.

It's not bad. It doesn't hurt at all.

Pull his tooth first.
His tooth is loose too.

So I'm sure if it's painful or not.

Oh, his parents can pull his tooth out.

[chuckles] Why do you have a string
wrapped around your tooth?

Go and ask your family to do it.

You're here to sell hairtail.

Why are you getting
your tooth pulled here?

-[Chun-ok laughs]
-Gwan-sik, you do it first.

Can you please be first?

[sobs]

Can you see if it's painful, please?

[Chun-ok] Aren't you scared?

So you're ready to do it?

[Chun-ok laughs]

Oh, my girl. You're so intelligent.

Where did you find a silly guy like him?

Good work. Good work.

-Hmm?
-[Chun-ok laughs]

-[young Ae-sun] Did you pull it?
-Feel anything?

[Geum-myeong] Eventually,
we lose our teeth for the second time.

I can't believe that the little child

without her front teeth
grew up to be so big.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] The old black crows

won't bring you
a new tooth now, will they?

Let me take care of your teeth.

Something is the matter, my child.

I know how you feel.

I know exactly how you feel.

There are times

when I want to call out his name
at the top of my lungs…

and cry my heart out.

After holding it in

for all of my life,

saying Han-gyu's name is…

even more difficult to utter than ever.

And I feel terrible that I can't.

So I know

how you feel.

I know exactly how you feel.

[sobs]

[tender piano music playing]

[Geum-myeong] I know how you feel.

Hearing her words,

Mom laid her head on her grandmother's lap

and cried her heart out for a long time.

[Ae-sun's uncle groans]

Why won't you go with her?

She's your favorite son,
Han-gyu's daughter.

Oh, I really wonder how much this cost.

What? Are you uncomfortable with her?

Her husband and her?

This is expensive, isn't it?

Hey, you bought her a boat,
so why feel bad about this?

Nothing wrong with your granddaughter
buying you this.

I didn't do that much for her.

I never even gave her any croaker.

How can I live there?

Shit, nobody forgets those damn croakers.

You poured all of
your life savings into her, didn't you?

[sighs] Oh.

In the hereafter…

all I'll hear is Han-gyu screaming at me.

All I'll get to hear

is my son screaming at me.

[chuckles]

It's warm. Oh.

I think I'll sleep well tonight.

[tender piano music continues]

Oh, look. Mama.

It's as if you're a newlywed.

Your children will remember you
by this photo.

Pink is a good color for you.

Did I do well, my dear?

[music fades]

Have I paid off your debt?

Yes, truly. Of course.

You did so well.

Oh, I'm running out of breath.

I think I'm just about ready.

You may breathe your last one now.

So,

was it

a wonderful life or… or a hard one?

[gentle acoustic guitar music playing]

[Chun-ok] It was a wonderful life.

I got to live a life with all my children.

It was an amazing life.

I can't believe it.

KIM CHUN-OK OF GIMHAE KIM CLAN
MAY YOU FINALLY BE REUNITED

Now we say goodbye
to someone every season.

Right?

We don't know what we had

until they're gone, one after another.

Both my parents.

Your grandmother, your father.

You're right, Mother.

My son's wife was definitely
a cut above your son's wife.

Yeah.

[woman 5] Oh.

I did it again.

I brought three spoons.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Auntie Chung-su.

My grandmother.

You really should've gotten… dentures.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] And…

I hope you and I

leave this life together.

Hmm?

[Geum-myeong] We think
we arrive at the picnic together,

but people all leave at different times.

Just as the tides ebb and flow,

some leave us,

but some…

[doorbell rings]

Oh, he's here.

The door's open. It's open.

…return to us.

Oh! [exclaims excitedly]
Oh, dear. I'm so, so happy you're back.

Oh, Eun-myeong. It is so nice to see you.

Thanks so much, son.

Oh, well, why are you just standing there?
Get in here.

I made all kinds of things for you.

What is it? You wanna salute us?

[both laugh]

-Salute?
-[both laugh]

Hang on. Why do you have so much luggage?

Mother.

Okay. Go. Go ahead.

[chuckles]

What, you bring something?

What?

Hi. It's been a while.

Oh my. [gasps]

Hi, Hyeon-suk.

Bu Hyeon-suk, right?

[middle-aged Ae-sun]
Oh my. Oh, you… you guys

are still… still together. Wow.

So what's this about? [chuckles awkwardly]

Uh…

Wh… why do you have
your hand on your b… belly?

Oh, oh, please don't scare me like that,
Hyeon-suk. What?

-Mother, Father.
-What? What? What? What?

No. Aah! I… I don't want to hear this.

You're Grandma and Grandpa.

[middle-aged Ae-sun] Oh my God.

You're Han-bang's grandmother.

[Geum-myeong] In spite of
the coldest weather,

new buds always fight their way
out of the ground.

-You idiotic, shameful… where is it?
-Just like their springtime…

-Oh.
-…their winter arrived too soon.

Where is it? You idiot.

You were supposed to serve your country.

[upbeat pop music playing]

[music fades]

Huh?

Stop!

[upbeat pop music resumes]

[crowd screaming]

[upbeat pop music continues]

[screaming continues]

Geum-myeong, wait!

Yang Geum-myeong!

Yang Geum-myeong!

[screaming continues]

[Chung-seob] Geum-myeong!

[Geum-myeong] A winter
as sparkly as their spring

was on its way.

A GLISTENING WINTER

RIDE THE MOMENT WITH ALL YOU HAVE."
